Season 1 marks the beginning of The Beacon’s shift to a seasonal model. Future seasons will add new systems, mechanics and earning paths, with $BCN distributed through gameplay each cycle.

Core loop

The season is built around a risk-reward structure. Players run dungeons, earn Umbra Shards and choose how to use them. The safe path opens chests for steady rewards. The riskier path converts Shards into higher-return opportunities.

“Play it safe… or take the risk,” the team wrote. “Every path leads to $BCN.”

All rewards tie back to engagement: dungeon progression, chest openings and participation in the season’s new prediction layer.

Kraken Klash

Beneath the dungeon loop sits Kraken Klash, a prediction-based board game where players commit resources and choose outcomes. The system adds a layer of timing and strategy on top of the core experience, with higher risk offering higher potential returns.

Free and premium tiers

The full core loop is free to play. A premium tier expands progression, adds exclusive rewards and opens access to additional systems that increase earning potential.

Referral program

Pre-registered players receive a personal referral code. Referred friends get bonus Gobloonz and an Umbra Chest on entry. Referrers earn a percentage of their invites’ Glint purchases for the duration of the season.
